If you say I hate the automotive designers who can’t design properly angled headlights, I’m criminalizing your shit take too
We should find a way to bring back gladitorial combat but non-lethal ofc. The coliseum could be flooded for naval combat! That’s so sick. There’s gotta be a way to bring this back T_T.
I want to hunt Cybertrucks for sport.
the trucks themselves or the drivers?
Pull the drivers out and make them watch before hitting them with a littering fee.
Criminalize cars
Criminalize headlights
Criminalize headlights mounted higher than 18" above the ground
Criminalize headlights aimed higher than 18" above the ground
I’m cool with LEDs though, lights that use less power and last longer are cool.
Driving should be made as unpleasant and inconvenient as possible. Drivers should suffer greatly every moment they are operating a car.

I have no non-political opinions because all of our opinions are shaped by our politics even if we don’t think we have any
[popular thing you like] bad
Every body was drunk all the time before cars.
Cars are a party foul.
I found my people. <3
The problem isn’t LED headlights as much as it is aftermarket LED headlights not working with the reflectors intended for halogen ones. This causes them to reflect light up as well as down, making them more blinding to other drivers. A car is only intended for the type of bulb it was sold with, and changing the bulb to a different type is a serious safety hazard.
And secondly for some stupid reason the earlier model cars from American manufacturers with LED headlights used PWM to control the brightness, giving them the flickering appearance (and for many people a headache).
And the worst part is that a good LED headlight is indistinguishable from a halogen one, so there’s really no way to fix their reputation.
We also need regulations on headlight height, most of the popular big pickup trucks and SUVs have their headlights higher up than the roof of my hatchback. It’s not safe to drive when even properly installed lights are shining straight in through the windshield.

Gas-powered leaf blowers should be banned, or at least heavily regulated
Oh and personal ownership for pickup trucks should require proof of need. Otherwise, have a communal pool that people can borrow from on the off chance they are actually hauling something
U-Haul
WE-Haul
Pickup trucks requiring a CDL or other similar licensing is a hill I will die on
Gas-powered leaf blowers
Fuck these things so hard. There’s no reason for them to exist except for deeply entrenched
Loud motorcycles and cars should be banned
In most places they are, but cops don’t give 2 shits about enforcing it to the point that nobody knows there are dB limits to vehicles
I had a shitbox with a piece of pipe I welded on after the exhaust fell off once (it was fully legal and passed state inspection). I got pulled for driving the speed limit and the cop told me I was breaking noise ordinance. I ask which ordinance and all they did was fume at me that they can’t “name it off the top of their head”. I’m sure the cop never pulled over someone in a giant diesel truck or a 100k sports car for making noise.
I think we should give this communism thing a shot, non-politically
How is that controversial you dweeb. Say something actually controversial like “all bread tastes the same, what are white people on?”
non-political opinion
those don’t exist
GOLDEN AGE
Lawns should be banned except in situations where there is genuine a recreational purpose for the public (sports fields, dog parks etc.)
Schools should have a public health focus for each term and students should be exposed to the importance of a particular public health issue, the consequences of failing to address that issue, the victims of the issue, and ways to manage or mitigate the issue. I’m talking seatbelts, polio, diabetes, you name it. Get a person who has a traumatic brain injury who is employed as a public speaker to meet with students and talk about what happened to them when they didn’t wear a seatbelt and the ways that it affects their life to this day, show documentaries about victims of polio, that sort of thing.
Chopsticks are the most versatile implement in the cutlery world.
Most ingredients in domestic cleaning products should be banned or at the least restricted because we don’t need the widespread use of things like bacteriostatic agents and we don’t need to be exposing children and waterways to that kind of shit.
Most advertising campaigns that are against addiction are actually an op and they serve to encourage people to engage in those behaviours and to relapse.
There should be a hotline that the government operates which records a question or concern that you have and then communicates this to a qualified expert in the relevant field who then contacts you to provide you with a response based on the best, most up-to-date science. The responses should be collated into a sort of FAQ/encyclopaedia with written responses and short video lectures so that the most commonly asked questions can be addressed immediately and so that this can help guide the development of educational curricula.
That chopstick take is wild. Spork destroys in all categories.
When it comes to soup you might have the better take here
It’s not that the spork is the best at anything, but there’s no food it can’t shovel into my gaping maw.
Chopsticks are the most versatile implement in the cutlery world.
Can’t cut
Can’t scoop a liquid
Mainly need two to approach the power of a fork
I think chopsticks might be the least versatile implement?
Can’t scoop a liquid
Normalize drinking soup straight from the bowl!
Don’t get me wrong, I much prefer the experiential elements of eating by chopstick and slurping down the last of your soup is vastly more enjoyable then using a spoon to slowly consume the meal
But the implements are, in the main, objectively less effective
skill issue

I’m not as proficient as a mainlander but I’m pretty good with chopsticks
I always fail to make my cracker hands operate chopsticks.
Put all your food in tiny bowls and practice
TRAIL BY FIRE
I like these, but as a sometimes manically inquisitive folk I love the last one a lot.
